Happy #WorldBeeDay!

In a recent study in our journal, researchers used pollen #metabarcoding to analyse bee specimens, revealing significant shifts in foraging patterns.

🧬 Calling all #eDNA and #EnvironmentalOmics enthusiasts!

At the AquaEcOmics meeting, 35 international experts discussed forming a European Society for Environmental Omics (ESEO) to strengthen collaboration across the field. 🧵(1/4)

[MBMG Journal @MBMGjournal]

The society would connect academia, industry & regulators to advance environmental omics methods. While Europe-focused, membership will be open to all. 🧵(3/4)
